I keep a bin of dirt in my living room that has a thriving potato bug colony. They get fed veggie scraps periodically. One of my favorite animals

It is that scene, yeah

I'd 100% ruin a kid's life and my own if I had to take care of one full time. They're not for me I've always known that. I'm much better suited for being the cool aunt

Yo I got surgery on the 6th and it took until yesterday for my digestive tract to wake up enough to poop again

Fun fact: Lockheed uses Unity to make XR training apps and Unity used to (maybe still does I'm not sure) partner with them to help build said apps

I was thinking of moving to Germany but I just can't now. Sweet popcorn? In a theater? Half the reason I even go to theaters is so I can eat enough buttery topping with some popcorn mixed in to feel sick. The absolute madness of putting sugar on popcorn, I'd sooner eat a bowl of unpopped kernels

But for real all you salty/savory popcorn lovers out there: If you haven't tried it yet put some powdered brewers yeast on your popcorn. That stuff is magical. Goes weirdly well on pizza too

What does being a hobbyist taking care of an aquarium have to do with eating fish?

Axolotls are nearly if not already extinct in the wild. Hobbyists and researchers are the only thing keeping them in existence. Everyone adores seeing my axolotls and get emotionally invested in them almost immediately, which provides a very tangible in person thing for them to think about. It's a good jumping off point for talking about what's happening with lakes and rivers.

There are some things we shouldn't take from the wild. Like I believe sourcing completely natural live rock is unethical as corals have it hard enough and it's super easy to farm our own live rock. Some things it's fine and can even help preserve them or teach people about conservation. I learned so much back when I took care of a marine tank. I have a much stronger understanding of how intricate and fragile our ecosystem can be and people should be allowed to learn and see that for themselves
